    My Auxiliary is interested in hosting a Gold Buy Back Fundraiser and has asked that I research this concept.  If you have held one of these fundraisers, can you please answer the following questions or post any other information you might have:

    What company did you use for the Gold Buy Back?

    What percentage of the buy back did you receive?

    How competitive was their pricing with the current value of gold?

    What kind of comments/concerns did you get from the employees?

    Would you hold this event again?

    Thanks for your help!

    Dolly,

    What we have found is that by now most folks who had gold to sell have already done it.  Even the fly by night gold buyers who came into town for a weekend event in a hotel have stopped coming.

    It is no longer the money maker it was.

    Just food for thought.

    We had a gold sale recently and although we made money, the amount was hardly enough to pay for the vendor's expenses.

    I agree that anyone who had gold to sell, has already done so. We will probably not do this again any time soon.
